On key press with variables

[manjero]

Hi

I have 5 buttons. I want each one to be played from the keyboard with a key, but i need the specific key to each button to be a variable read from a txt file. I can load the file and store the variables but i can't pass a variable to On Keypress == variable...

any thoughts?

Thanks in advance,

Hello:
If your button is a button symbol: you cant play the button by keypressing.
But if your button is a MovieClip Symbol: you can play the button by keypressing.
And read this code:
[This code for pressing specific key]

var keyListener:Object = new Object();
keyListener.onKeyDown = function() {
    if (Key.SPACE) {
        trace("You pressed Space key.");
        //Start your code from here.
    }
    if (Key.SHIFT) {
        trace("You pressed Shift key.");
        //Start your code from here.
    }
};
Key.addListener(keyListener);
 

Hope this help you.
